Silken Wings

Silken Wings

A butterfly fluttered inside my being...body and soul
As my eyes lay upon you for the first time
For you,
The man who as sure I am of my love for
I am sure he will break my heart along the line
Suffering is my future! So clear as in a crystal ball
Yet I helplessly and stubbornly fly towards your shine!
For you,
I pull my silken wings, dip them in a bottle of drying ink,
To write to you, just you, the contents of a heart...
Throbbing with passion
Aching for a touch
Longing for reassurance
To write to you, just you, these long-silenced whispers!
